UPS reported sharply lower earnings in the third quarter and said it expects lower revenue and thinner profit margins ahead. But it cited a slowing global economy, not its recent labor issues, for its gloomy forecast.

UPS is something of an economic bellwether, as its trucks move an estimated 6% of US gross domestic product and 3% of global GDP, the broadest measure of economic activity.

UPS Teamsters local unions endorse agreement with delivery giant UPS
REUTERS - 6:46 PM ET 7/31/2023
(Reuters) - The Teamsters local unions, which represent 340,000 workers at United Parcel Service ( UPS ), voted 161-1 on Monday to endorse the tentative agreement reached with the delivery giant on July 25.
The agreement, estimated to be at $30 billion by the union, provides historic wage increases, one more paid holiday and air conditioning in the company's ubiquitous brown delivery trucks.
It also eliminates a two-tier pay system and forced overtime for delivery drivers.

BY Aishwarya Nair, REUTERS - 7/26/2023
(Reuters) - A tentative labor deal between United Parcel Service ( UPS ) and the Teamsters union on Tuesday could pressure full-year outlook for the world's largest parcel delivery firm, according to analysts.
The five-year contract, which the head of the union claims to be worth $30 billion in new money, covers about 340,000 U.S. employees and provides wage increases, and one more paid holiday among other benefits.

Yesterday, 10:15 a.m.
Two thousand UPS workers in the Philadelphia region have signed onto a demand to raise wages after part-time employees were hit with an unannounced pay cut.
A Thursday morning protest organized by the Teamsters 623 Local union drew about 75 workers, elected officials, and organizers to the South Philly UPS complex. The Oregon Avenue shipping center employs more than 1,350 people across customer service, drivers, and warehousing, according to a union spokesperson.
Shamar Hudson, a warehouse worker getting off his shift as the rally began, told Billy Penn there wasnโt any warning from management before his pay was slashed from $19 to $15 an hour
